Scenario A In goats, black fur is dominant to red fur. The gene for this trait can be described as Bb (if you forgot why this is so, go back and reread the background information at the beginning of this exercise). A homozygous black female goat (nanny) is crossed with a heterozygous male (billy).   5  What is the probability of the goats having a red kid, i.e., what is the proportion of red kids? Record your answer as a percentage What is the probability of the goats having a black kid? Record your answer as a percentage.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
